17th EUROGRAPHICS Workshop on Graphics and Cultural Heritage
Safeguarding Cultural Heritage in the Digital Age
Sarajevo, Bosnia and Herzegovina, November 6-9, 2019
*** Short papers and posters deadline: September 13th ***
The 17th EUROGRAPHICS Workshop on Graphics and Cultural Heritage (GCH 2019) aims
to engage practitioners and researchers across the world working at the
interface of novel digital technologies and cultural heritage. Taking place at
the heart of the Balkans, in the city of Sarajevo this year’s event will explore
the role of computer graphics and other digital technologies in safeguarding,
preserving and providing access to cultural heritage which might be vulnerable
from natural and man-made threats such as climate change, economic hardship,
violence and neglect. As such, the event will enable participants to showcase
and discuss new technologies and workflows available to heritage professionals
to document, monitor, study, conserve/preserve and provide access to both
tangible and intangible Cultural Heritage. Interdisciplinary and
multidisciplinary approaches are particularly relevant to the event and this is
reflected in the diversity of invited contributions. For the research community,
GCH 2019 provides an excellent scientific forum to exchange novel ideas and
developments as well as to identify future research and application
opportunities. For the practitioner community, GCH 2019 provides a unique
opportunity to feed into technical developments as well as to identify new
techniques and ideas which can be transferred into practice.
We invite short papers and posters presenting ongoing research activities or
projects with a maximum of 4 pages. Contributions are solicited (but not limited
to) in the following topics:
- Imaging techniques for Cultural Heritage processes, including visual analysis
techniques such as 3D digitisation, motion capture, multispectral imaging, X-ray,
terahertz imaging, and other techniques allowing to record Cultural Heritage.
- Visual data processing and data fusion
- Digital libraries, archiving and long-term preservation of 3D documents
- Visual analysis of datasets, including semantic-aware representation of
digital artefacts (metadata, classification schemes, annotation), similarity
search and browsing.
- Visualization and virtual museums, including serious games and storytelling
- Multi-modal and interactive environments
- Spatial and mobile augmentation of physical collections with digital
presentations
- Digital fabrication, including subtractive and additive methods such as 3D
printing
- Organizational aspects of cooperation between ICT and CH experts for project
development
